Timeless Truths ‎#550

550. Rejoice Forevermore

1 From my soul and all within,
Let eternal music spring;
Melodies of love and gratitude,
To our Father’s name above,
And the Son of heaven’s love,
Who hath made in us His sweet abode.

Refrain:
Oh, rejoice forevermore,
For He’s washed our garments white;
Oh, rejoice forevermore,
In this blessed evening light.

2 In our happy souls a voice
Bids us evermore rejoice,
And again rejoice, ye royal seed!
Oh, we cannot cease to sing
Praises to our heav’nly King,
For the love of God we feel indeed. [Refrain]

3 Hallelujah! we are free,
Children of the jubilee,
And we’ll sound the golden harps of God;
All is bright, supernal day,
And our tears are wiped away,
Through the precious all-atoning blood. [Refrain]
